I drove my bike to the Bridgeland Pool over July 4th weekend and had a great time. What a beautiful pool, the lakes throughout the area, and all of the new homes with no power lines to see.
Bridgeland is a Master-planned Community in Northwest Houston off of 290 and Fry Road. It is one of the largest developments since The Woodlands and Kingwood with over 11400 acres.
Bridgeland chose to devote 3,000 acres to open space with 60 miles of interconnecting trails, border-to-border, to provide connectivity for pedestrian and bicycle traffic to various villages, village centers and activity centers. Exercise trails with fitness stations will be available throughout the development, as well as nature trails along waterways and creeks, to provide views of waterfowl, aquatic plants and grasses and to expand recreational educational opportunities. Over 900 acres of lakes and waterways are planned to provide ample opportunities for outdoor activities and quiet respite just steps away from your door.
Homes may be found in a wide range of housing prices, styles and densities, from conventional neighborhoods in price points from the $160s, to custom home designs in excess of $1 million. An exciting “new urbanism” project, Lakeland Heights, is planning to open next year.
The plan includes sites for preschools, private schools, schools for special needs students, multiple public school locations as well as satellite college campuses and continuing adult education classes, all within the borders of the Bridgeland community.
Bridgeland has buried ALL power underground to preserve and enhance the breathtaking views. Most new communities in Houston bury the power inside of your neighborhood but very few communities take this process a step beyond and bury power lines you would normally see along the perimeter of your community. Since Bridgeland will have breathtaking views from border to border, the absence of all power lines ensures that nothing gets in the way of you and the beauty that surrounds.
